Assessing the Impact of Post Migration Lifestyle Changes on Migrant Settlement Trajectories

Research output: Book/Research ReportResearch report

Abstract

Migration is a complex phenomenon which brings with it settlement and integrationrelated challenges. The research attempted to holistically view migrants’ settlement journeys as they cope with the dynamics of changing culture, society and socio-economic status. The research looked at successful settlement through the lens of migrants’ self-defined paths, journeys, contexts and experiences surrounding their migration and settlement. It focused on post-migration lifestyles and life experiences amongst seven migrant communities residing in Greater Western Sydney with regard to changes in income, employment status, social status, family dynamics, English language proficiency, availability of settlement services, and cultural integration.
